How To Get Away With Murder Season 2 finale and Season 3 expectations

“How To Get Away with Murder” wrapped up season two with so much twists and suspense better than season 1. We were surprised when season 1 ended and we saw Frank was the killer,well season 2 left us with more surprise. It turns out Caleb (Kendrick Sampson) was the killer all along. After Oliver hacks the police they find out that Caleb has been an informant for the police. Annalise (Viola Davis) with the help of philip compiled enough evidence  to prove that Caleb was the killer. In the end, we see Caleb in what looks like a suicide in a pool of blood in the bathub. Annalise is still having a hard time forgiving Frank for killing Lila and playing a role in the accident that led to the loss of her baby years back. Frank dissapears but meanwhile Annalise tells Bonnie (Liza Weil) that Frank has to go. Now we dont know if that means fire him or kill him. Wes (Alfred Enoch) takes a trip to confront Wallace Mahoney about being his father. Wallace is shot right in front of him just after he tells him I think I am your son, splashing blood all over Wes’ face. We don't know who shot Wallace Mahoney. I have a feeling it's Frank.


 I found an article online from "Variety" containing an interview with the creator of How to get away with murder Pete Nowalk. Here is what he had to say concerning upcoming season 3

How soon will the mystery of who-shot-Wallace be revealed in the new season?There are two options for me — it’s either in the first minute in the show, or that’s a longermystery because it’s a more complicated story.
My theory is that Frank is the one who shot Wallace in order to get redemption with Annalise. What do you think about that theory?
I will say that makes a lot of sense. If Frank decided I need to make good with Annalise, I’m going to get rid of one of the most evil men in her life and I’m going to show her thatI’m on her side. Exactly that makes sense, but sometimes on the show, it’s our goal to do what no one expects and sometimes we just do what makes sense. It’s not a bad theory at all, and I have a theory as well and I’m going to meet with the writers in the next few months and we’re going to hash it out and see what idea we like best. It’s all up in the air.
Wes obviously didn’t have a relationship withWallace, but still, his father was shot right in front of him and his blood was splattered all over his face. How will that affect Wes?
One year ago, I would have said Wes would have fallen apart and down a spiral, but I think he’s been through so much hell now, he’s much tougher. The thing I’m really excited to explore now is what is his relationship with Annalise now. They’ve beenon such opposite sides because she’s been aggressively protecting him, but also hiding asecret from him, but now that everything is out on the table, he has to decide whether to trust her. He’s alone so I think there’s a version where they grow much closer and they work together so that’s what is really appealing to me right now.
Whether or not Frank shot Wallace, he is missing. Is he actually gone or will he come back?
There’s a very good option that he’s gone for good — that he fled to South America and will hide away from Annalise forever. That bag has a lot of money and he hasn’t touched it this whole time. He’s been atonning for that sin for these past ten years without Annalise even knowing it. Or, he’s going to try to win her love back. Those are just two options. There’s a big mystery still ofwho was he before he met Annalise. What happened between him and Sam beyond thatsecret that they kept in the hospital? Those are all stories I want to keep telling and explore. We’ve only now just revealed one secret so there’s got to be a lot more.
What does Annalise mean when she tells Bonnie “he needs to go” — does she want Frank dead?
I think that’s a really good question, but I will not answer that question because I think it’s up to the audience. I didn’t know how Viola was going to perform it. I just trusted that she would in her own way, and I think she probably has one meaning for it. This is the biggest betrayal of her life, besides Sam being involved in Lila’s murder. For her, in that moment, she does not see a way to forgive Frank or even a desire to forgive Frank. Instead, it’s the opposite. It’s this desire to see him go — however you want to interpret that. We’ll reveal more about that next season.
If Frank is back, what is the relationship between him and Bonnie going to look like?
A lot has changed.Bonnie is going to have to chose sides basically. Bonnie is like, Annalise, we can forgive Frank, it was Sam’s fault! She’s tryingto be the peacemaker. And Annalise is like, hell no! Bonnie is basically going to have to chose a side in this war and I don’t know which one she’ll chose. Within that, there’s also the mystery of how did Bonnie and Annalise first met and who is Bonnie most loyal to.
In the new season, do you want to explore Bonnie’s backstory just as much as you did with Frank’s this season?
Both of their backstories, we’ve hinted at certain things, but we haven’t shown it. The storylines that I have in my head are very rich and complex, so I don’t know when we’ll tell them, but I think they are worth seeing.
Speaking of backstory, why did you want Annalise to visit her childhood home?
A few reasons. I wanted to bring Cicely back obviously this season, and she wasn’t available until our finale because she was doing a play. I knew I wanted Annalise to findout that Frank killed Lila. She’s been betrayed by another man, and who is she going to go to? She can go to Eve, but I feel like Annalise’s only choice is to flee town. And then also, I just love the challenge and the weirdness of changing the show’s energyand changing the location. The finales with the way we’ve done them, they’re high-intensity and exciting and I just wanted to do something different. It was scary and really hard doing that storyline, but for me, I always respond to the biggest challenge so that was my goal.
Why did the Hapstall case end how it did withCaleb being the killer, and him ultimately taking his own life?
For a while, I felt like it was too expected thatit would be Caleb — the one who we got to know better and the one that Michaela fell for. I just thought that people may see it coming. But in the end, it felt like the thing that made the most sense and obviously, sometimes we go for surprise, but for me I just wanted it to make sense. We didn’t provide clear-cut evidence, like in the real world you never actually know — you know people are charged with murder and put in jail, but there’s always the chance that they didn’t do it — so I think we gave as much evidence as they would have gotten in the real world just to prove that he did it, and I think that his suicide basically answered the question. He gave up.

HOW TO GET AWAY WITH MURDER S02 EP 12: HOW DEEP DOES THEIR MESS GO?

With less than two weeks since the series returned back on screen these law students are faced with so much mess they might not be able to handle.

cover photo

Laurel confronts Frank about the bad things he says he has done. He doesn't want to say but as she leaves he tells her that he killed Laila (murder case of season 1) but she doesn't want to believe this as they all think Sam did it. She asks why and a call comes in, Frank says he has to pick the call it might be Annalise but Laurel tells him not to and concludes he did it for Annalise due to his loyalty. He picks the call anyway but he turns around and she has left.

Laurel being upset goes to see Wes, Wes received some documents from Annalise that leads him to Ohio to find clues about his mother's death and Laurel follows him to take her mind of Frank as he continues to call.
Meanwhile Philips sends a blackmail recording to Connor showing all of them at the mansion (crime scene) and asking for one million dollars sent to his account or he sends it to the police. Annalise tells them to go home and let her handle it. The next day Annalise suggests they ignore his video and call his bluff since there is no time stamp on it but things get worse as the time elapses and their celebration is cut short by another mail showing Annalise and Nate her cop boyfriend as they spend the previous night together. They all get scared at the realization that they are being stalked.
While in Ohio Wes and Laurel get intimate about their personal life and they share a brief and passionate kiss caught up in the moments of emotion. While they continue their search through court transcripts related to death of Wes' mother he concludes she was killed and Annalise knew about that's why she facilitated his admission and protected him ever since. After seeing documents that states it was suicide, Wes is disappointed and in pain but Laurel finds a document saying her 10 year old son(Wes) is major suspect for the murder case and she hides it from him.
Still in the confusion of what to do about the mail, Laurel barges in and tells Annalise rudely that she wants to speak with her. They try to explain to her what is happening but she explicitly makes it known that she doesn't care. They go into a room and Laurel confronts her about the document she found showing it to her since she was the lawyer in charge. She doesn't say anything but the look on her face depicts her fore-knowledge.
How deep does their mess go? Will it get better or we are yet to see more drama
Will Wes find out what he did? Stay tuned!!!
